O'Mara's car was crowded over so that ut hit Mr. Phles. The elderly man received cirts about the head and face and slight contu sions of the brain. He was made un conscious. Orpheum. BT LEONE CASS BAER. OCCASIONALLY some song writer comes in person to present for our entertainment and consideration some of his compositions of the past and always a new one he has just written. Ernest Ball !s one, Joe Howard is another and there are others. Anatol Friedland is the newest to make our acquaintance,' speaking for the Orpheum audiences, ' for from now on we will feel that we know Anatol pretty well. He Is a personable, likable chap and he sat at the piano yesterday quite as if he ' was in the front room and hammered I out tunes he had made up out of his own heart and head. He has a group ot gorgeous girls, hand picked and bounteously aided by heaven. In turns they put on clothes or remove them and impersonate the songs Anatol has made up, including "My Little Persian Rose," '"Dream Girl." "Shades of Night." "Sweet Adair." "Ar You From Heaven?" "I Found You." "'Lily of the Valley" and j a dozen more. In between whiles the i keenest maids imaginable whirl in ; and out, one to play the violin, an- ! other to caper brilliantly on her tippy I toes and one little jazz baby with an j Ingrowing voice to exploit her ankles and shoulders. j A real prima donna. Sonia de Calve, sings the ballads with top notes and i tioi- vnirn fa lnvlv Tho hitr fpatlire ' in the act, however, is a quiet appear ing, well-groomed, likable man named Neil Mack who directs the orchestra and sings. His interpretation of Ana tol's newest song, "Springtime," brought sustained applause and he sang the song again and again. His voice is ' sympathetic in quality, he sings easily and puts a personal ap peal into every word. He goes from the orchestra onto the stage later and is the life of the party. A whole col umn could be written about the mar velous gowns and trappings of the girls, the wonderful curtains and the novejl odds and ends of the act. It is the most gorgeous act of its kind we have ever had sent us. A brilliant turn is offered by Maude Powers and Vernon Wallace, who as old-time friends in Georgia meet by accident on a park bench in New York and renew acquaintance. Wallace's laugh and assumption of self-consciousness is delightful and his method of reminiscence about his home town, the folk back there and their smalltown doings is a perfect Joy to any of us who remember the things he talks about. Together they sing about Georgia and we feel that It is very real. Then they put on a village wedding and between its com edy and its beautiful, sweet moments it proves a triumph in entertainment. Tuck and Clare have a sensational turn. One is entirely without bones and can sit on his left ear or put his foot in his eye with equal felicity. His partner is an acrobat who can turn somersaults backwards or for wards without touching his hands to the floor, and on one occasion while standing on one foot he turned three marvelous air spins. They keep up a steady exchange of puns and perti nent patter and are vigorously ap plauded. The boneless wonder capers on later in the Anatol Friedland act, chasing a butterfly girl, and receives another round of attention. More truth than travesty is the brilliant little episode "At the Phone." put on by Marven Morgan as the tele phone operator and Lord Chester as a number seeker. Any one of us who calls central and receives "line is busy" before we've even asked for a number or "they don't answer" when we know they're waiting for the call, or has central break into the middle of your conversation to say "number, please," will view the act with appre ciation not unmixed with sadness. It would be splendid as propaganda put out by a long-suffering public if it could be viewed by the officials of the telephone company and every hello girl in Portland. It is exceedingly well put on. the roles characterized and caricatured cleverly and a snappy climax gives the audience another jolt of fun. Elsie Clark has personality and a certain original way of telling her songs. One is a threat against the "bimbo" who stole a perfectly good husband away, another is a song ode to moonshine, in two verses, pne verse to each kind of moonshine. both of which declared the singer had made a wild lady of her.- Nelson Story plays the clever Miss Clark's accompaniments, and while she is changing her frock on one occasion he plays a capital specialty on the xylophone. Lee Rose and Katheryn Moon are a clever pair, nimble on their feet and quick of wit. They tell stories in dance. One of the stories is of the once beloved Annie Rooney and her Joe, who have been speeded up for modern consumption. Another is of a couple who trip on obstacles while they dance. The latter is especially keen. Their act Is handsomely put on on a full stage with a. piano kept busy by Harry Stover. The opening act, is called "Charles Henry's Pets" and in it several dogs pose. This show closes with the matinee Wednesday. BOY, 8, LOST 12 HOURS Mother of Billie Patrick Notifies Police Lad in Theater. Billie Patrick, 8 years old, left home at 8 o'clock yesterday morning and Otd not return ror more than 12 hours, His mother. Mrs. Virginia Patrick, of 2bl Broadway, sent him on an errand and when he did not return, notified th police. " Billie gave no information last night to his mother as to the extent of his wanderings, outside of the fact that he had spent most of the day in a moving picture theater. He came home by himself, surprised at his mothers concern. Billie's father was killed in France during the war. ' Baker. ' BY LEONE CASS BAER. PROPAGANDA against the dollar down and dollar-a-week scheme of existence is exploited with sense and nonsense at the Baker theater this week. The play takes its title, "A Dollar Down," from the well-known and established system of credit by whioh the wheels go round In the domestic machinery of many homes. The author makes an argument against the system in general and cleverly proves his points in two par ticular instances. One instance is that of Cora Myers, a rattle-brained dress-mad wife, who drives her hus band almost to a financial break by her extravagances and her dollar down methods of purchasing the rai ment her vanity craves. Just in time does the worm make the turn. The worm in this instance is Cora's gentle meek-mannered husband, who puts uip only a meek objection to her tyr annies until his boss, expressing an interest in his clerk's future, gives him a fresh impetus and ambition. Then he comes home, the husband, not the boss, and reads the riot act to the addle-pated wife and she runs true to form, following the tradition "a dog, a wife, a hickory tree, the more you beat 'em the better they be." Cora's reformation sets in in a.n acute form and she leaves off doing the things she has done and begins doing the things she has left undone. Among her reformations is the dollar down habit, which she forsakes and we leave her living nobly and hero ically within her husband's income. The other instance does not end so happily. Cora's sister, Stella, is an economical soul who makes her own hats and dresses and scorns the habit of debt, into which her sister has fallen. She has a spineless, good-for-nothing husband who does notap preciate her economies, pokes fun at her clothes and urges her to dress like Cora. In a fit of despondency Stella takes up the dollar-down sys tem and rapidly collects clothes ami things for her house. Then the worm in this domestic plot turns and he turns on Stella, berating her for her extravagant purchases. Come to find out he has been keeping up two es tablishments, his own and another for a seasoned and experienced vam pire. Into all this' discovery the un suspecting wife b'tum'bles through the agency of her husband's employers, from whom he has stolen some $6000. The employer happens to be en amored of &telLa and she uses her wits against his in freeing her hus band. However, she doesn't forigive her husband, but leaves him with a half-expressed hope that he will straighten up, repay the debt and some day maybe he can come to her in her home town, where she is re turning to take uip her life where she left off when she married him. So the author proves his argument again. Every character is well drawn and the etory is plausible. Lora Rogers is the mother of the two girls, a lo quacious, "fixy" old woman, vain of the fact that her defunct hus-band had kept 'the best livery barn in KLmyra, that he "had had the biggest funeral Eimyra ever saw and that she herself had been a vamp in her day. She has an open and expressed fond ness for beer and her tongue wags constantly. Her big arrobition is to appear "re fined" she calls it "ree-fined" and the burden of her song is a culture which everything she does belies. Miss Rogers makes the role memor able. In costuming, accent, pantomime and characterization. Another study that stands out for excellency in unstudied methods .is Mayo Methot's picture of the sulky Cora in tawdry attire domineering to ward her patient spouse until he turns on her and reduces her to a timid, adoring and thoroughly sub dued bit of femininity. Miss Methot's natural beauty of face and body and voice dovetail perfectly into the part. She rises to surprising dramatic heights in the big scene with the hus band, played admirably by Selmer Jackson. He makes the gradation from gentle patience to a dominant cock-of-the-walk attitude so natur ally that the audience constantly ap plauded him. Leona Powers artistic ally plays the other sister, Stella, a straight, sweet heroine role with sym pathetic qualities, and Murray F. Barnard is excellent as the philander ing husband, a cad-like part that calls only for contempt. Shirley Maben-y is the vampire who lures him away and she plays the role exactly as the author conceived it. A splendid piece of character work is Smith Davies' alert detective and Leo Linhard adds the villain's touch deftly as the em ployer. This bill will continue' all week, with matinees on Wednesday and Saturday. The cast: Stella Crosby , Joe Crosby Mrs. Haskell Cora Myers Harry Myers .-. Blanche Sterling:... Harrison Nesbitt., VALUE YOUR WIFE, SAYS DR. MUVEEH Youths Told to Take Good Look BefcJre Plunge. COURTSHIP IS DEFENDED ence; the communion table Christian's holy of holies. without reverence Is a man without depth. "Thirdly, the Christian needs the weekly communion not only as a me morial and as an education, but also as a fellowship. There Is a distinctly social element in the Lord's supper. A communion with Christ is also a communion with Christ's people. The Lord's table is an agent of democracy. We are all equal there. It is a place to forget our personal differences. We are to examine ourselves and not our neighbors." is the) Portland council is planning for the A man j customary celebration of Columbus day In a fitting manner. A banquet will be given at the Multnomah hotel the evening of October 12. John J. SulJivan, vice - commander of the American Legion, will be the prin cipal speaker. Another speaker will be William J. McGinley, supreme sec retary of the Knights of Columbus, who is making a western tour in the interests of the Knights of Columbus free schools for former sen-ice men. A bazaar is to be given by the Portland organization October 21, 22 and 23. It is for the purpose of rais ing funds for the new clubhouse. Pastor Scores Scoffers Who Snicker at Couple .Making Prelimin ary Survey of Field "If you are going to drive double in life take a good lone look at the other horse. With life becoming Increas ingly complex It is ever more difficult to find the one man or the one woman that will bring you happiness." So said Dr. W. T. McElveen at the Y. M. C. A. meeting for men yesterday aft ernoon. The Congregational minister was discussing "The Why and the When of Marriage." He said in part: "Of all human relations marriage is the highest and the most difficult. For all the possibilities of the great est happiness and the greatest suf fering lie in marriage. The. general publio. thinks and speaks of, marriage too flippantly.' "One cannot speak in public on love and marriage without some super ficial people snickering. The conduct of friends toward the newly-married pair is oftlmes vulgar. "Courtship is a prelimnary survey of the matrmonlal field, yet many people act as If courtship was some thing to be ashamed of. They sug gest that the lovers must skulk like culprits in some dark corner. They describe courting as a playtime in which there Is nothing but senseless billing and cooing. You men need to have a broader and firmer apprecia tion of life's realities than is ex pressed by the maudlin sentimentality of the present. "Marriage helps to complete us. Man is a fragment; woman is a fragment, fn marriage the two become one in the fullest truest sense. We hear a great deal about the equality of the sexes. But they are not similar. Kach is in many respects what the other is not." Dr. McElveen said that if a man marries a woman simply because she makes him physically comfortable or a woman marries a man simply be cause he supplies the monetary where withal! marriages become degrading. "Don't marry a woman in order to secure an unsalaried valet," he con tinued. "A little love Is. a dangerous thing.-. Pick out for a wife one with whom you can share your study as well as your play; one with whom you can share your deepest as well as your most frivolous thoughts. "Marriage is not simply two type writers that click as one. It Is not simply two minds that are occupied by the same set of ideas. A wife ou?ht not to be a mere copy of her husband. If a man and his wife are too much alike they grow stale to one another. If instead of duplicating one another they compliment one another then they both grow in abundance of life. There are nagging women and grouchy men; here's hoping that they marry each other and have no children. There are women who whine and men who sneer; here's hoping that, they may marry each other and have no progeny. "Remember, too, that you cannot have a deep-growing love for the one woman of your choice if. you have been holding sordid relations with women that you did not really respect. No man should bring to his wife burnt-out emotions." LAWS OF GOD IILI.I) DEFINITE Statutes Cannot Be Violated With Impunity, Says Dr. Stansfield. Dr. Joshua Stansfield spoke at the i First Methodist church last night on i "Law and Order, or How Does God I Punish Sin?" He said that the laws of God are out of his right hand. They are not an accident, but designed, di rected, definite and devine. j "The laws of God for human life are fiery, fierce and unalterably firm for the laws of God grind slowly on. but they grind exceeding small yet they are beneficent and good. "This holy, fiery, beneficent law of God, as given in the ten great com mandments, we much need today in the home, the school, the state, the nation. The ten commandments are not yet obsolete. "So tonight, young men and old, parents and children, teachers and pu pils. I cite and recite this fiery, benef icent law of God. which is constitu tional to man; that is to say. It is built upon the very needs and nature of our being and never can be violated with impunity. . "This law of God is seen always and ever in the Individual life. Read it. Mark it. Learn it. Obey it. It is your life. 'Out of his right hand went a fiery law; yea. he loved the people.' " MAN FOUND SHOT DEAD GEORGE MEYER VICTIM OF ACCIDENT OR SCICIDE. Hippodrome. BILLY BARLOW has returned to Portland on the Hippodrome cir cuit to delight the hearts of old and young alike by his really clever pat ter and nonsensical little songs. So del'ghted were the audiences at the Hippodrome' yesterday that they called him back so many times he made a curtain speech which charmed them as much as his funny sayings. His act is not pretentious. He does it all himself without any aids of stage effects. His extenporaneous verse-making about the audience, both in general and particular, is tuneful and gets much applause. He does a few stock magician's tricks, but explains them all so thoroughly that they are turned Into jokes at once. Ht has a gentleman in a box draw a card from his pack, tells the audience it is the ten of clubs and then brings down the house by dis playing the pack, composed entirely of that one card. Pasquale and Powers, billed as "ar tistic musical exponents," play the violin and accordion very well, giving classical as well as jazz selections. They have a little tift. which they ex press by way of their music, and finally make up again, with not a word spoken. Maude Allen wears beautiful gowns and sings charmingly both old-fash ioned and new-fashioned songs. She has been associated with the concert stage for many years. A comedy playlet entitled "Grand pa" gives Francis Swope a good op portunity to sfar In the title role. The sentiment in the play as well as the comedy is appealing. Verna Mercereau and her company of assistants, stage "a dance drama of past and present," which goes back to the time when Egypt was in her glory. The setting is elaborate and the story unfolded Is that of the pride and vanity of a queen of that country who does not heed the warning of the gods and whose jewels turn into chains to crush her beneath, their weight. There are records of snuff having been used. In the West Indies and elsewhere long before the introduc tion ot tobacco to Europe. Schuyler North Leona Power ..Murray F. Barnard Lora Rogers Mayo Methot Selmer- Jackson ....Shirley Mayberry . ..l.eo Linhard .Smith .Da vies Lyric. THE new Lyric show, which opened a week's run with yesterday af ternoon's matinee, is "Wright from Bluffville," with interesting stops at Laughland, Songville and Dance -Junction. The play is crammed full of laughs to the brlrri. with a generous portion or tuneful singing and pleas ing dancing. The plot shows the old matrimonial maxim that a wife is more ready to believe a fantastic story about her husband's actions than the plain truth. Mike Dooley, played by Ben Dillon, is enjoying a ride on a ferris wheel at a country fair when the machinery stops and he is left stranded in the air all night with an attractive wom an passenger in the same predicament. On his return home he tells this story to his wife, who refuses to believe him. and he tries to get out of trouble Dy inventing a tale of spending the night with an old friend, Mr. Wright, of Bluffville, talking politics. Mike then calls on his pal Ike to help him out, by pretending to be Mr. Wright. All goes well until the right Wright and the wrong Wright come together. Then comes trouble for Mike and a quick scries of snappy comedy situa tions. The stage setting for the play, showing a luxurious interior scene, is well arranged and forms a cosy background for the dancing numbers of the popular Rosebud chorus, which reflects generous credit' on the new ballet mistress. Miss Floy Ward. The Lyric trio Heath. Smith and Gilkison are given a chance in the present piece to show their versatility in singing to good advantage, and they respond In fine fashion. They get a lot of harmony out of the old favorite. "Love's Old Sweet Song." and are given a big hand for several clever specialties. Frank O'Rourke discards his usual jazz song number for a ballard called "Let's Help the Irish Now." which he follows up with a slam-bang Irish reel. Ben Broderick gets a lot out of "My Greenwich Village Sue," and Will Rader, who gives a fine performance in an English butler character part, sings "Just Another Poor Man Gone Wrong." Dorothy Raymond is well received in "Knot of Blua," and dainty Gay DuValle makes a hit with "Everbody Tells it to Sweeney." Tuesday night will have the coun try store feature, and Friday evening the chorus girls' contest will be added. PASTOR BARES SOCIAL ILLS Divided Home Blamed for Starting Children on Wrong Path. 'Suppose a girl goes wrong, and suf fers with a sex disease. What does society do? " It herds her with other social salvage, in a state institution which is kept up by taxation on property. - "The other day, I called at such an institution and saw one of these girls who was. 13 years of age. "At asylums . and sanitariums. I found poor men and women, talking to themselves or to the wind. "What caused them to be placed there? Is it nothing to you who pass by?" The preacher was Rev. Thomas Jenkins, rector of St. David's Episco pal church, speaking in his pulpit, yesterday morning. He did not blame the state of Oregon in taking care of human salvage in state institutions, but thought that it would be much more sensible if such offenders were saved when young. The point was emphasized that too many -children start on the wrong hygienic-path, when they come from what are known as "divided" homes. homes ahattered by divorce and lack of responsibility by parents. The evils of Juvenile delinquency were pointed out, as obtained from records of the juvenile court. "What must we do to prevent social wrecks being sent to state institu tions, such as the . penitentiary, re formatories, etc?" asked Mr. Jenkins. "Social service in the churcli and Sun day school and the inculcation of moral precepts among the young Is part , of necessary preventive work, before .children become social salvage. There is no nobler work for us, as church people." . COMMUNION HELD NEEDED Body Is Found by Family Lying Across Bed, but Belief Is Shoot- . i ii g Was Mishap. George Meyer. 1841 Division street, 30 years old. shot and killed himself in his bedroom some time early yes terday morning, either accidentally or with suicidal intent. Members of the family told Deputy Coroner Caulklns that Meyer had been drinking Saturday night. W.hen they went to his room to call him Sunday morning they found him lying across the bed partially dressed, with a bullet wound in his temple. Because there were no suspicious circum stances, the coroner's office decided no inquest would be held. That Meyer may have shot himself accidentally was the belief of the deputy coroner following his investi gation. John Meyer, the father, said his son was in the habit of getting up early in the morning to go rabbit hunting on Mount Tabor. Because of the young man's befuddled condition, due to the liquor, it is believed that he may have discharged the gun ac cidentally while preparing for a hunt during the early morning hours. The deceased worked for his father, who is a dairyman. He also leaves a mother, three brothers and two sis ters. The body was removed to a private undertaking establishment. RECORD' SALES CONTINUE Realty Firm Disposes- of 10 1 Lots in Easy-Term Campaign. Coe A. McKenna & Co. announced the sale of 104 lots yesterday in the second day of the lot-selling cam paign on the basis of il down and $1 a week. The grand total of lots sold since thev were thrown upon the market Saturday at 1 o'clock now reaches 170. George F. Mahoney, connected with Coe A. McKenna & Co., sold 36 lots as a result of his individual efforts, making a sale for every customer he took to see the homesites. But few prospective customers failed to make purchases. Mr. McKenna announced that the sale would be continued on the same basis until the remainder of the lots were disposed of. Valuable Lessons. Are Says Rev. H. H. to Be Had, Grifi'is. The Rev. Harold H. Griffis devoted his sermon on the subject of "Bene fits of a Weekly Communion" yesterday- morning at the First Christian church to a discussion of the New Testament 'ordinance of the Lord's supper He said In part: . "The benefit of a weekly commu nion service is three-fold. First, It enables the Christian to remember his Lord's death. Jesus said. This do in remembrance of me.' It is always true that objects and places asso ciated with loved ones gone before become themselves sacred through these associations. In the Christian's personal life no document is so pre cious as that letter or that Testament which the dying mother presses into his hand. But if he cherishes that little memento of human love, how much more will he cherish this sweet, simple ceremony which the dying Redeemer has pressed into his hand as the memento of a divine love? "Secondly, the Christian needs the weekly communion not only as a me morial, but also as an education. The observance-of the ordinance is an ed ucation in loyalty; it enables the dis .ciple to confess his faith anew to put himself again on record for Jesus Christ, It is an education In quietude. Here with bowed heads and hearts we learn the meaning of the command, 'Be Btill and know that I am God.' It is an education in unselfishness; in handling the emblems of his Savior's death the communicant is brought face to face with the doctrine of self sacrifice. It is an education in revcr- LARGE CLASS INITIATED Knights of Columbus Admit 75 Candidates- Into Council.
